The new issue (152) of Bourgogne Aujourd'hui is online. Like everyone else, the last few weeks haven't been easy, but here it is, and we hope reading it will take your mind off things. This issue has 80 pages, and exceptionally includes a "section" (over 30 pages) rather than a supplement. Beaujolais Today.
We would like to remind you that for all orders of a single-issue or subscription "web" format, issue number 152 will be immediately accessible. Our printing company has also done its utmost, and the print version of the magazine will be available around April 16th. At that time, subscribers will receive their copies, and print magazine orders will be shipped immediately by mail. However, we strongly recommend that our readers outside Europe prioritize the "web" options.
Warmest greetings, happy reading and above all take care of yourselves!
